Where are the stem cells that make new cells to protect the intestines in an adult?

In the adult intestines, the stem cells that generate new cells to protect the tissues are located in the intestinal crypts. These stem cells are found at the base of the crypts and continuously divide to produce new cells that migrate upwards to replace the older cells that line the intestinal surface.


How do cheek cells reproduce more cells?

Cheek cells reproduce through a process called mitosis, where the cell duplicates its genetic material and divides into two identical daughter cells. This allows cheek cells to replace worn-out or damaged cells by continuously dividing and replenishing their population.


When do cells reproduce?

Cells reproduce through the process of cell division, typically during the cell cycle. In multicellular organisms, cell reproduction occurs as part of growth, repair, and maintenance processes. Some cells, such as stem cells, have the ability to continuously divide throughout an organism's lifespan.


Do telomeres get shorter with age?

They do. If they didn't, we would essentially be able to continuously have our cells reproduce allowing us to live forever assuming we weren't affected by something else.


How often do epithelial cells reproduce?

Epithelial cells reproduce at varying rates depending on their location and function in the body. For example, skin epithelial cells can regenerate approximately every 28 days, while intestinal epithelial cells may renew themselves every 2 to 6 days due to their exposure to harsh environments. In general, the turnover rate can be influenced by factors such as injury, inflammation, and overall health.

What are the Crypts of lieberkuhn?

They are intestinal cells found in the Small Intestine (SI). They are in the inter-villi space (between villi) and project down into the lamina propria of the SI. They contain Paneth cells, which secrete lysozymes.

Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.


Why skin cells undergoing mitosis continously?

All cells are undergoing mitosis continuously to replace, cells that are dying continuously.


Where do the new cells reproduce?

the cells reproduce where they are located, and the stratum basale is where the are, next to the stem cells.
